Hi @gkk207,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
If your HP DeskJet Plus 6075 printer is not printing properly despite replacing the cartridges and performing all recommended self-help steps, the issue might be due to a variety of factors. Here’s a comprehensive troubleshooting guide to help you address and resolve the print quality problems:
1. Check Ink Levels and Cartridge Installation:
- Open HP Smart App: Open the HP Smart app or the printer’s control panel to check the ink levels.
- Replace Cartridges: Ensure the cartridges have sufficient ink. If you’ve recently replaced them, ensure the cartridges are genuine HP cartridges.
- Turn On Printer: Ensure the printer is on and the cartridges are accessible.
- Remove and Reinstall Cartridges: Remove the cartridges, wait a moment, then reinstall them, making sure they are securely in place.
2. Run Printer Diagnostic Tools:
- Open HP Smart: Use the HP Smart app to run a diagnostic check or print quality report. This can help identify specific issues with print quality.
- Access from Printer: On the printer’s control panel, navigate to the menu for “Tools” or “Setup” and select “Print Quality Report”. Review the report for any abnormalities.
3. Perform Printhead Cleaning and Alignment:
- HP Smart App: Open the HP Smart app and go to “Printer Maintenance” or “Tools”, then select “Clean Printhead”.
- Follow Instructions: The app will guide you through the cleaning process.
- Access Printer Menu: On the printer’s control panel, go to “Setup” or “Tools” and select “Align Printhead”.
- Follow Instructions: Complete the alignment process to ensure proper ink distribution.
4. Check Paper and Print Settings:
- Use Recommended Paper: Ensure you are using the correct type and size of paper for your printer. Refer to the printer’s manual for paper recommendations.
- Open Print Dialog: When printing, open the print settings dialog.
- Select Quality: Set the print quality to “High” or “Best” in the print settings.
- Check Color Management: Ensure color management settings are correct for your print job.
5. Update Printer Firmware and Drivers:
